Dc Martin Amundsen from Essex Police said

"I would like to thank the public for coming forward and assisting detectives with this investigation, which was a very nasty assault on the man. "There is, however, a third suspect outstanding. We know there are potential witnesses who may be reluctant to come forward but knowing these two men have now received prison sentences may give them some reassurance to tell us what they know and provide us with the name of the third person involved in the assault.”
